COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 21 (UPI) -- Chris Osgood made 31 saves Tuesday, helping Detroit beat Columbus 4-1 for a 3-0 lead in the Western quarterfinals.
Henrik Zetterberg scored two goals, Dan Cleary had a goal and two assists, and Tomas Holmstrom also scored for the Red Wings, who will try to complete the sweep Thursday in Columbus.
R.J. Umberger had a power-play goal and Steve Mason stopped 22-of-25 shots for the Blue Jackets.
Mason, a rookie, helped Columbus go 33-20-7 with a 2.29 goals-against average in the regular season.
Mason reportedly could become just the fifth netminder to win both the Calder Trophy as the top freshman and the Vezina Trophy as the league's best goalie. Ed Belfour was the last goalie to win both honors with Chicago in 1991.
